  1. Plant cell Plants Flower

  2. The first part of the plant you see growing above the ground as it develops from a seed, or a seed, or any new growth on an already existing plant is called a shoot. Strong shoot!

  3. Parts of a flowering plant (With a new shoot) Functions • Flower: to make seeds • Roots: holds plant to the ground and takes in water and minerals from the soil. • Stem: holds up plant leaves and flowers and transports water and minerals around the plant. • Leaf: collects sunlight for photosynthesis (to make food for the plant) Leaf Stem

  4. What’s photosynthesis all about? • Plants are a vital part of life on Earth. They are so important because they make their own food from sunshine. • This ability is a process called photosynthesis. • Because they make their own food, they are at the bottom of the food chain supplying food and energy for all other life on the earth.

  5. Plants store extra sugars in their stems, roots, seeds or fruit. • That energy is passed on to any animal that eats them

  6. The oxygen that is released in the process of photosynthesis is also essential for life on Earth.

  7. Task • Draw a label the different parts of a plant including the flower, stem, roots and leaves and describe the function of each part.

  8. Can you think of different parts of a plant that we eat? 2 minutes to think of some examples . . . . . . Get thinking !!!!

  9. On some plants we eat the… roots! radish beetroot onion potato carrot Look… it’s below the stem and leaves

  10. On some plants we eat the… leaf! spinach lots of herbs lettuce

  11. On some plants we eat the… stem! rhubarb asparagus celery

  12. On some plants we eat the… flower! broccoli tomato cauliflower cucumber

  13. Tuesday 12th April 2011 Flower Structure Aims • To be able to label the parts of a plant cell • Understand that the flower of a plant contains the reproductive organs • Be able to label these parts and construct a diagram.

  14. Plant cell

  15. Carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil join together using energy from the sun to make sugars (food) in the leaf of the plant. This is called photosynthesis.

  16. Reproductive organs of a plant flower • The contains the reproductive organs Petals: brightly coloured and attract insects needed for pollination Stamens: are the male parts of the flower. The anther is a sticky bit so the yellow pollen can stick to it. The part that supports the anther is called the filament.

  17. Stigma Style Carpel: the female parts of the flower. Consist of the - stigma (sticky so pollen can stick to it) • style (where pollen travels down) • Ovary (in the ovary are ovules which have the female egg cell). Ovary

  18. Task: construct your own flower! Sepals are green and leaf like and protect the flower.

  19. Written task Use these words to fill in the gaps: Seed, water, shoot, root, flower, minerals, food, anchors, sunlight The part of the plant that is in the ground is called the ………… It has three main tasks, it ……….the plant in the ground and takes in ……… and ………..from the soil. The leaves absorb …………to make ………..for the plant. Insects are attracted to the ………….of the plant. The first part of the plant that you see above the ground the develops from a ……….and is called a ………….

  20. Pollination • Pollination - when pollen is passed from the stamen to the carpels either by: • insects  insects go to feed on nectar of flower. Brush against stamens and collect pollen. Brush against carpel and pass on pollen. • Wind Pollen is blown by the wind. Wind.

Activity • Where does a plant grow best? • http://www.ngfl-cymru.org.uk/vtc/plants_light_water_to_grow/eng/Introduction/Default.htm • Parts of a flower: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks2bitesize/science/living_things/life_cycles/play.shtml Photosynthesis song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1_uez5WX1o&feature=related Photosynthesis (Higher) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gLa5EWn9OI&feature=fvwrel • Blockbuster game: http://www.teachers-direct.co.uk/resources/quiz-busters/quiz-busters-game.aspx?game_id=9161 • Blockbuster game (easy) • http://www.teachers-direct.co.uk/resources/quiz-busters/quiz-busters-game.aspx?game_id=5331
